231 Ghos (2/2)

”Oh, no!”

Both men froze at once, their pupils dilated, cold sweat cascading down their bodies. Before they knew it, the black, cold steel of a gun muzzle appeared right in each of their faces.

”Die!” Xiao Luo said coldly and pulled the trigger without any hesitation.

BAM! BAM!

The bullets penetrated their craniums, and both bodies hit the ground in a slump.

In all, Xiao Luo had killed the seven men armed with submachine guns in the blink of an eye. Every shot he fired found its mark. These were seasoned fighters, each of them cruel and dangerous criminals who had been through countless such situations. Combatants who had long gotten used to gunfights and putting their lives were on the line. Armed with submachine guns, how was it possible that they were taken out so quickly? The man with fish-eyes swallowed hard. He was beginning to truly understand the meaning of fear…

He only knew that this man was no mere mortal. He possessed skills and power that was beyond that of any human. They were no match for him.

”Motherf*cker!”

The green-haired man cursed loudly and aimed his gun at Xiao Luo. A volley of gunfire followed as everyone in the group all fired at once.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Xiao Luo moved with lightning speed. With bullets ricochetted the ground behind him, he bounded across the field like a hunted wolf. Suddenly, turning around, he pounced towards the men and shot them dead from a short distance. The hunted had become the hunter.

Hei Lang slowly clenched his fist, he felt his inner power surge within. He had kept count and knew Xiao Luo was running low on ammo. It was time for him to strike, he strode forward and… the cold muzzle of a gun was pressed against his temple.

”Don't move!”

The short man cast aside his cover and stopped Hei Lang in his track.

”You betray me?” Hei Lang looked towards him, coldly from the corner of his eyes.

”I did not betray you, I am an undercover cop,” the short man said.

Hei Lang immediately realized why Xiao Luo had put on a show that day. Zhuangniu was intentionally made out to appear like the informant, while the actual snitch was this insignificant toady before him.

He sneered mockingly, ”What a great act, a great act indeed!”

Hei Lang showed no signs of apprehension even with the gun pressed against his head, and the short man suddenly felt nervous. ”Hei Lang, you might be skilled in the martial arts, but this bullet doesn't recognize your skill. I hope you won't do anything dumb!”

”Why not give it a try?” Hei Lang laughed coldly.

Hei Lang had by now channeled his internal energy to his right palm, and in a flash, he smacked his open palm into the short man's abdomen while pulling his head away, all in one quick motion.

POW!

The short man reeled, as the force rapidly surged inwards through his body, and he felt his intestines churn from the shock waves. He spat out a mouthful of blood as he sailed in the air and landed hard on the ground.

BAM!

He managed to squeeze the trigger, but the shot missed its mark, and the bullet graced Hei Lang's face. He sustained a superficial flesh wound but was affected otherwise.

WOOWOO-WOO WOOP WOOP WOO-WOO

The sound of police siren pierced the air, as the red and blue flashing lights appeared from afar.

Hei Lang stopped walking towards the short man and then turned and looked at Xiao Luo, who was engaging his subordinates. He made an immediate decision and leaped into the sea, and soon disappeared from sight.

The smugglers panicked when they heard the sirens and saw that the police were upon them. Five or six police cars had screeched into the jetty ground, with task force units jumping out fully armed and ready. They force, led by their captain Wang Yongjia, quickly got the men surrounded. Their fighting spirits completely deserted them, and they threw down their weapons and surrendered with hands above their head.

Only the green-haired man still held on to his weapon. He had run out of ammunition and just stood there glaring at Xiao Luo, seething with menace.

”Put the gun down and squat down, hands above your head!” Wang Yongjia shouted loudly, pointing his pistol at the man.

Xiao Luo smiled at the green-haired man. ”Do you hear him, put your gun down.”

The green-haired man dropped his gun, but was still clenching his fists tightly, and snarling like a feral dog.”If you think you are so capable, fight me alone!” He roared at Xiao Luo.
